Egg On Face

Look, I think ESPN college football analyst Kirt Herbstreit is arguably the best football analyst in the business.

I think Cris Collinsworth is the best but that’s another story.

But after today…..wow…..does Herbstreit (and ESPN for that matter) have egg on his face.

Herbstreit came on during his highly watched Saturday morning college football TV show and ‘broke news’ about LSU coach Les Miles. Herbstreit said Miles would be named the next coach at the University of Michigan. Herby went on to break down why this was so good for Miles and talked about the status of LSU football with Miles.

The only thing was…..HERBSTREIT WAS DEAD WRONG!

So wrong in fact that LSU and Les Miles called an impromptu press conference before today’s SEC Championship game to refute the report.

Very rarely do you see a national, super-respected analyst get burned like this…but it happened.
